New York Times ^ | November 10, 2005 | Judith Miller

Well, I hope she didn't sign a confidentiality agreement as part of the severance deal. She needs to write a TRUTHFUL book, revealing where all the NYT "bodies are buried."

What a read that would be! (Not that I dare hope.)

[p23185]

It's sad to see the New York Times lose a couple of their best writers recently

Nothing could be "sad" when it comes to the NY Slimes.

But .. the "confidential source" she was protecting WAS NOT LIBBY!!

Who was it ...... the mysterious Jaqueline Wilson?

I'm guessing a member of Hillary's staff.

Now that we apparently know that there was no "there" there, I'm wondering why Miller's lawyers don't seek some kind of sanction on Fitzgerald for falsely claiming that Miller was obstructing justice (and holding her in jail for contempt). If there was no underlying 'foul' of outing a covert agent or illegally transmitting classified information (on ship movements, for example), then it would seem to be a mighty weak basis for jailing Miller in order to find out whether or not Libby was being truthful on questions that were only tangentially related to the original mandate of the prosecutor.

I hear you.

By the way....... the Grunwald family ( So and So Grunwald, former editor-in-chief of Time as had CIA connections for a nice little time.

****

LOL. Try reading that silly sentence of mine. I'm sorry......... this whole thing has me overly half mad........ so I left it just as my computer (and I) wrote it!

;-)

I'm going a little batty!

Leaving the NY Times is like getting a lifeboat seat on the Titanic.

Who was it ...... the mysterious Jaqueline Wilson?

Ze mysterious Jaqueline who was married to the fracophile Joseph Wilson the IV?

if we knew the truth about the 2nd "condition" - what Fitzgerald let her get away with keeping secret.

she didn't go to jail for Libby - he had already released her, his 2nd release was meaningless.
